imcollective is an architecture and design studio based in Portugal. It uses creative energy to create bold visual identities, robust spaces and objects made to last. The common denominator across all projects is a meticulous attention to detail. Its work, regardless of client or scale, is enriched by interdisciplinary knowledge, resources and experience. imcollective believes that the interplay between architecture and design leads to more robust and distinctive creations. Its first furniture line emerged from a search for originality, shaped through skilled craftsmanship and inspired by the modernist principles of functionality, robustness and simplicity.

The «collective collection», the first furniture collection by imcollective, will be presented during 3daysofdesign at DESIGN DIALOGUE, curated by Ark Journal. Designed by the studio and carefully made in Portugal, the collection includes stools, benches and tables in solid wood, shaped through skilled craftsmanship. Inspired by a modernist approach, the collection features also intricate joinery that reflects a responsible use of materials and a commitment to objects made to last.
